|

The Carolina Hurricanes understandably are feeling awesome, and they have the results to back that up. That’s not the case at all for Monday afternoon’s opponent at Raleigh, N.C., when the Los Angeles Kings show up. The Hurricanes own an eight-game point streak. They’ve won seven of those games, including Saturday night’s 3-2 overtime decision against the visiting Pittsburgh Penguins. “We’ve been through some adversity as a team early on this year, for sure,” Carolina … more

Perhaps Monday’s visit from the lowly San Jose Sharks will help the Sabres rebound from their latest frustrating home defeat. Buffalo is 9-11-1 at home and has yet to win back-to-back games there this season. On Thursday, the Sabres earned a 5-3 home win over Ottawa, only to fall 1-0 versus Vancouver on Saturday — dropping to 1-2-0 during a five-game home … more
